A woman has three daughters who get married. She asks them to write to her in two words to describe their happiness.
The first daughter gets married and after three days the woman gets a note. It reads ‘Maxwell House’. The woman was confused but then read an advertisement in the paper for Maxwell House coffee reading: “Satisfaction guaranteed”. So the woman was happy for her daughter. The second daughter gets married and after seven days the woman gets a note. It reads ‘Rothmans Cigarettes’. The woman was baffled but then read an advertisement in the paper reading “Lifetime, King-size”. So the mother was very happy that her daughter had married well. The third daughter gets married, but the woman is worried, it’s been four weeks and no word. Finally, on the fifth week the woman gets a note. It reads “British Airways”. So then mom rushed to read an advertisement about British Airways, and shock, horror! She faints. The advertisement read: “Three times a day, seven days a week, both ways”. |
